The Angry Beavers | Nickelodeon | Fandom powered by Wikia TV.com summary The Angry Beavers is a Nickelodeon animated series created by Mitch Schauer , about Daggett and Norbert Beaver, two beaver brothers who have left their mom and home to become two bachelors in the forest. Their many adventures spark them to release their ugly sides very often, drawing in the name Angry Beavers. The show premiered in 1997 after the 1997 Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards and was cancelled in 2001, when one of the planned episodes would have had Norbert and Daggett discussing how cartoons are re-run after they end. This resulted in a handful of the final episodes going unaired until 2006, when they were finally aired on Nicktoons Network . Contents → Main article: List of The Angry Beavers characters Main Characters Daggett Doofus "Dag" Beaver : Daggett is the younger sibling, born four minutes after Norbert. He is hyperactive and loves to joke around, and is very immature. Bugging his brother is almost like a hobby for him.

He has brown fur, a gray tail, sharp teeth, a red nose, and pointy black fins/ears on his back. He is apparently unliked of by many animals in the forest, and thought of as stupid or uncool, but Norbert still seems to have a soft spot for him, despite the brotherly teasing. Daggett's catchphrases include "That was NUTS!", and "Spoot!". Some of Norbert's nicknames for him are "Dag", "Daggy", "Daggy-waggy" "Daggy-doo", etc. He is voiced by Richard Steven Horvitz . Norbert Foster "Norb" Beaver : Norbert is older than Daggett by four minutes. He is very laid-back, calm and much more mature than his brother. He often obsesses over his hair. He likes to manipulate his brother, mostly in order to get things, or make Daggett look like an idiot. Even so, he will sometimes show a reluctant protective brotherly love for his younger sibling. His catchphrase is "Biiiiig HUG!". After saying this, he will force hugs on the less-than-receptive Daggett.

Some of Daggett's nicknames for him are "Norb", "Norby", and "Norby-orby-orby". He has blond/yellow fur, a tan tail, a purple-ish nose, and brown, rounded fins/ears on his back. He is slightly pigeon-toed when standing. He seems to enjoy the finer things in life, such as money, great Arbor day gifts, hair curlers, bad horror movies, and becoming a Lipizzaner stallion. He is considered "cool" by most of the other animals in the forest, and is a usual trend-setter. He is voiced by Nick Bakay . Stump: A giant sequoia stump, friend of the beaver brothers. He frequents many of the beavers' social events, forming an integral part of their inner circle. When Dag first met Stump, he was jealous of him but Stump brought Norb and Dag closer together. In "Stump Looks For His Roots" he journeys off in search of his real family. Norb and Dag almost ate Stump while they were in a cave.

Treeflower (voiced by Cynthia Mann): The love of Norbert's life and a hard working beaver who have a lot of jobs outside the forest life. Treeflower was once in a relationship with Norb during the "Bummer of Love" episode. She returns wanting to be friends with Norb when she meets Truckee although Truckee only cares about his truck. Treeflower was also Muscular Beaver's sidekick Goody Good Gal. Among her careers are elevator songwriter, championship snowboarder, superhero and firefighter. Bing (voiced by Victor Wilson): An annoying lizard who hangs out with Norb and Dag. Bing went through a breakup in one episode. Norbert and Daggett also fought over him because he told all the other creatures that they're both constantly ditching him. Barry Bear (voiced by John Garry): Daggett and Norbert's funk-loving friend. Barry is a vegetarian despite being a bear. He once made a disco album after everybody got sick of Beaver Feaver. In one episode, Barry felt awkward around Norbert because he was acting like Daggett. There was also an episode where the beavers thought Barry was going to eat them (A lie that Bill Licking made up).

Truckee (voiced by Mark Klastorin in most appearances, Mitch Schauer in "Dag's List"): A truck loving shrew and Daggett's most hated enemy. He drives a big truck around called "Big Renee" just because it's cool. Truckee once worked together with Daggett when a "volnado" (Combination of a tornado and volcano). threatened to destroy his dam. Even though they escaped he took all of Norb's stuff (He couldn't take Dag's stuff because Dag had it all nailed down). He is also very sensitive about the size of his ears. Big Rabbit (voiced by Scott Weil in most appearances, Richard Steven Horvitz in "Omega Beaver"): Nobert and Dagget's toughest friend. It is revealed that he sent a threatening note to them so they would be his friend. Norb and Dag eventually meet his family. Wolffe D. Wolf (voiced by Wally Wingert): He is a laid back Grey Wolf who will never do what other wolves do. Chelsea Beaver (voiced by Chelsea Schauer): One of the beaver brothers younger sisters and a female Doppelgänger of Daggett.

Chelsea is also hyperactive and unintelligible like Dag. Stacy Beaver (voiced by Stacy Schauer): Another of the Daggett and Nobert's younger sisters and a female doppelgänger of Nobert. Stacy is also laidback and condescending like Norb. Leonard Beaver (voiced by Tim Thomerson in most appearances, Lorin Dreyfuss in "If You In-Sisters"): He is the slobby and goofy father of the beaver brothers and sisters. He once stayed with Norb and Dag because their mother and sisters left to go visit their grandmother. Leonard has a strange condition called the "poo spot" (When you press it, it makes a farting noise.). He also encourages Dag to slap his tail even though beavers are only supposed to use the slap for emergencies. Mrs. Beaver (voiced by Sheryl Bernstein in most appearances, Linda Phillips in "Kandid Kreatures," Marcia Wallace in "If You In-Sisters"): She is the beaver brothers and sisters mother and Leonard's wife, Like her son Norbert she has secret doors and she likes Daggett best when her boys are getting along, She is also a secret agent as well as a housewife.

High Princess (voiced by Beverly Garland): The leader of the female raccoon tribe and the beavers' enemy who appears twice in the series. During her first appearance, she mistakes Daggett for a god because he had a knot hole on his head. Unfotunately, Norbert and Daggett end up destroying the knot hole. She gets even with the beavers by having her tribe literally cooking their dam over an open flame. During her second appearance, it was revealed that she was the one pranking Norb and Dag. Bill Licking (voiced by Gregg Berger): He is a wig wearingm wildlife television host and Norbert and Daggett's Idol and occasional enemy. He had a contract with the beavers to make them look good but instead he humiliated them. The beavers got even with him by hurting him on his own show. Laverta Lutz (voiced by Kate Donahue): A goofy and hideous magical woman who works in the bowing alley as maintenance worker who always bumps into Daggett for making wishes for him. She helped Dag bowl better, helped him win arguments against Norb and transported him to a world where Norb was an only child. She is voiced by Kate Donahue.

El Grapadura (voiced by Timothy Borquez in most appearances, Luke Torres in "Kandid Creatures," Joe Lala in some episodes): The Mexican Luchadore Norb and Dag's favorite Wrestling hero. Oxnard Montalvo (voiced by Tom Kane ): Norbert and Daggett's favorite B-Movie actor. Norbert and Daggett once helped him save the world from the monsters in his movies because they brought them to life by remembering his films. Scientist #1 managed to make him do his movies in color. Toluca Lake (voiced by Adrienne Barbeau): An actress who plays as the damsel in distress in Oxnard's B-Movies. She kept falling on her ankles in one episode. Dr. Cowtiki (voiced by William Schallert): The other actor who played as the scientist in the B-Movies with Oxnard and Toluca. Scientist #1 (voiced by Edward Winter): He is a mad scientist who laughs in an evil way as he does his job for science and is the main villain of the series. Scientist #1 always mistakes the beavers for pointy weasels.

His chest hair is literally in the shape of a one and in one episode, it is revealed that he does not have eyes underneath his glasses. He once accidentally transformed himself into a beaver and built a futuristic society. Pete (voiced by Nick Bakay ): He is Scientist #1's assistant. He's a half short old looking man with a big bald head, long nose, and he mumbles a lot as he talks. Pete once worked together with Norb to stop Scientist #1 and Dag. Reception The Angry Beavers was a generally popular show during its airtime. This was the show that kept adolescents and adults interested in Nickelodeon in the late 90s. It had a more adult, sophisticated sense of word play jokes and culture references that made up its humor, but was silly and unrealistic enough to attract the attention of young children too. Unfortunately, it was aired in the midst of the success of Rugrats , and many fans believe it did not earn the popularity it deserved. Many people compare it to Rocko's Modern Life and Ren & Stimpy as one of the most influential Nicktoons of the 90s.

Character quirks, like Daggett's compulsive adoption of a superhero alter-ego named "Muscular Beaver", whose costume consisted of an ill-fitting ski mask, a stuffed sweater, vent-front white briefs, stockings, socks and a cape, kept older and younger audiences' interest, but entertained them on different levels. For example: children and adults would be amused by the costume, but adults might get some additional mileage from finding the name "Muscular Beaver" to be vaguely risqué. The show's popularity with the more "adult" audience managed to get it some recognition. The show even had a small merchandise line that included T-shirts and plush toys. 63 episodes of the show were produced. Episodes → Main article: List of The Angry Beavers episodes The series ran from 1997 to 2001, ending a few episodes early in the United States on Nickelodeon. According to Script Supervisor Micah Wright , the last episodes have been seen in England, France and Australia, and may have since been shown on Nicktoons in the United States. [1] At the end of the fifth season, three episodes were in development but never finished. The first was "Tree Flockers".

Also titled "Tree Trouble", it involved the beavers selling flocked Christmas trees in July. The script for this episode can be downloaded from Wright's website. The second was "Magnum Opus, aka The Beavers Rock Opera". It would have been a post-series half hour special. "Tree Flockers" was bumped in favor of "Magnum", but after "Magnum" was cancelled, "Tree Flockers" was not reinstated. [1] The final unfinished episode was "Bye-Bye Beavers". In it, Norbert learns that their show has been cancelled and he breaks the news to Daggett: they are both cartoon characters and the show will soon enter reruns. Wright stated, "Nickelodeon hated this episode because it actually told the kids the truth: that the show was ending! Nick likes to just rerun their shows forever and pretend that they're still making new episodes and this show idea drove them up a wall!" The recording session for this episode starts off as with Norb and Daggett discussing the situation.

As it progresses, actors Nick Bakay and Richard Steven Horvitz begin switching in and out of character and later address each other by both their real name and the characters' name. There is also a few instances where Richard addresses Nick as "Salem", referring to his character on Sabrina, the Teenage Witch and laughter from the recording engineers can occasionally be heard. The final line in the session is Norb and Daggett saying "April Fools!". Whether this indicates the episode is an April Fools prank on the audience or whether the recording session itself is an April Fools joke is not clear. If the latter, then Wright's claim that Nickelodeon hated the episode would be a continuation of that joke. [2] Home video releases → Main article: The Angry Beavers videography Six "Best of" volumes are available from iTunes, offering seven pairs of episodes. In 2010, Amazon.com released manufacture-on-demand "Best of" DVD sets of the show's first three seasons. However, after Nickelodeon gave the license to Shout! Factory , the "Best of" DVDs were discontinued. Shout! Factory released the first two seasons on their first volume, while the third season was split across two volumes.

A "Complete Series" set was released in 2013, with the final season to receive an individual release in February 2014. The Shout! Factory releases have received generally positive reviews but have been criticized for the lack of bonus features. The DVDs were created from the re-broadcast masters and contain the censoring of some of the jokes. Music The theme song can be found on The Best of Nicktoons and The Newest Nicktoons albums. The former additionally includes the songs " Beach Beavers A-Go-Go " and " I Think I Like You ", while the latter includes " Beaver Fever " and " Oh Baby ".

Featuring all 62 episodes from seasons 1-4, "The Angry Beavers: Complete Series" collection delivers loads of mirthful madness in the marsh. Subtitles: English (Closed Captioned). The Angry Beavers (Western Animation) - TV Tropes The Angry Beavers You need to login to do this. Get Known if you don't have an account Share Western Animation / The Angry Beavers × WMG A show about two beavers, Norbert and Daggett, who are brothers and share a home. Norb is actually relatively easy-going (or was early on), and Daggett is the angry one.

A Two Shorts animated show which aired on Nickelodeon , and 7th entry in the Nicktoons series. Hilarity Ensues there regularly, often in a highly absurd way crammed full of dialogue both fantastically witty and ridiculously dim. The show first began airing in 1997 on Nickelodeon and ran for four seasons. In 2001, it was canceled for good when the last episode to be produced had the characters aware of the fact that they were in a cartoon which was about to end . This apparently broke several in-house rules, namely not breaking the fourth wall (Although KaBlam! did this in, like, every episode) or announcing the end of a series (due to Nickelodeon's habit of profiting off re-runs). It also apparently got the executives angry by referring to an earlier incident where the line "Shut up" was censored for a re-run using the Sound Effect Bleep and then changed altogether when that generated even more controversy. However, the show was able to be released through iTunes, featuring the best of Seasons 1 and 2. Seasons 1, 2 and 3 have been placed on DVD.

The complete series was released on July 30th, 2013 . Perhaps the only cartoon in the universe in which a clock on the wall visible in most episodes updates in real time . Not related to Angry Birds . Contains examples of: Acid Reflux Nightmare : The episode Food of the Clods shows Norbert feasting on junk food late at night then ending up Sleepwalking and re-enacting the 1950s B-films he's watching at the time Aerith and Bob : Norbert, Daggett, Trucky, Stump, Treeflower, and Bing. And Barry. Aloof Big Brother : Norbert at the start of the series. Artistic License ï¿½ Biology : Beavers don't actually eat wood. Sometimes they eat twigs or bark, but not really for nutritional value. They prefer the leaves, only eating bark and twigs when little or nothing else is available (as during the winter). Nor do they have white incisors, although how do you make orange incisors not seem cartoonish? Orcas do not eat humans like Camu does in "Moby Dopes".

Artistic License ï¿½ Paleontology : The Tyrannosaurus rex from the ending of "Moby Dopes" has three fingers on each hand and four prominent toes, and it stands in a tripod stance like in old-fashioned portraits. It is also much larger than the real animal, being able to eat an orca whole (a real Tyrannosaurus would be slightly larger than an orca). Art Shift : Everyone's addition to the campfire story in Pass It On. Norb's version is a Bond-esque spy thriller, Barry does the story over as a '70s exploitation movie, Bing's is just a series of doodles running around frantically, Stump's version is a letterboxed black-and-white drama with Scottish accents, Treeflower's is a Magical Girl anime with choppy 50's-style animation, and Dag's is just all the different styles floating in a white void. Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever : a common theme in the Beavers' favorite B-movies. Bad "Bad Acting" : Oxnard Montalvo and all his co-stars. Also Daggett, Barry, and Bing when the beavers complete a ' lost film ' of his.

Berserk Button : Norbert doesn't like having his hair messed with. Both beavers get annoyed whenever they are mistakenly identified as weasels. Big Eater : Barry, and both Beavers. Bigger Than Jesus : In Beaver Fever, the beavers become One Hit Wonders . Their manager tells them that they're "bigger than sliced bread" and shows them a graph chart that proves this. When Daggett repeats this to the press, people start burning their albums, leading to Daggett explaining that he meant that they're physically larger than sliced bread. Upon hearing this explanation, people burning their albums are seen putting their hands into the fire to retrieve them. Big Ol' Eyebrows : The record executive from "Beaver Fever", when we first see him, has birds perched on them. Bland-Name Product : Yahoo for Yoo-hoo. Also Ho-Humms snack cakes. Book Burning : In "Beaver Fever", Norb and Dag become disco stars. After announcing their latest album is "bigger than sliced bread", angry bread lovers stage public burnings of their albums.

After the beavers clarify that they actually said that their latest album is "bigger than a slice of bread", sheepish fans are shown trying to retrieve their albums from the bonfire. Buffy Speak : Both beavers used the word "thingy" repeatedly. One of the episodes is actually titled "Big Round Sticky Fish Thingy". Scientist #1 is especially prone to this. Really, 80% the cast is prone to doing this. Butt Monkey : Dagget tends to suffer a lot throughout episodes. Eventually it catches up to Norb as well. Minor character Chip always ends up unlucky every time he's seen. The Cameo : The Beavers obtain a box of movie masks, one of them is Helga Pataki , (though she has orange hair). Which is hilarious due to the fact that the movie masks are supposed to scare people. Canada, Eh? : Canucks Amuck Cassandra Truth : Daggett claims Big Byoo-tox is teaching him how to hide; Norbert, of course, doesn't believe a word of it. Norbert turns out to be correct , since it wasn't Big Byoo-tox, just a big, hairy, naked Canadian.

Daggett also claims that Old Gramps is real and that his tail was bitten off by the big fish. Norbert doesn't believe him until seeing a shadow of a fish in the lake. Another subversion for as it turns out, Old Gramps is an old, senile fish with no teeth. The REAL culprit was his wife, Old Gram. Catchphrase : Daggett's is "That was nuts!", while Norbert's is "BIIIG Hug!", usually combined with a big hug (or an attempted one). The Unusual Euphemism "spoot," which is something of a joint catchphrase for the two. Barry's "Oh baby". Celebrity Paradox : In "Tree of Hearts," the brothers receive an announcement in the mail about the birth of Richard Steven Horvitz 's son, Jack: Daggett: Wow! That's great! Daggett: Who's Richard Horvitz? Norbert: Nobody. Chased by Angry Natives : The brothers are chased after pissing off a tribe of Raccoons amazonesses. Chaste Toons : Averted. In the first episode, we see Norbert and Daggett's pregnant mother.

Not even a minute after her introduction, she goes off-screen to give birth to their little sisters. Averted in "Big Round Sticky Fish Thingy", where the brothers witness a rare sticky sturgeon lay an egg. Towards the end of the episode, a fully formed baby sturgeon comes out. Well, it's not like they could show a male fertilizing the undeveloped egg... Christmas Episode : Parodied with "Gift Hoarse", an Arbor Day episode (the justification being that Arbor Day is beaver Christmas). Cryptid Episode : Daggett meets "Big Byoo-tocks". "Fish Dips" is another. Deconstruction : The series finale "Bye Bye Beavers" was never filmed because it broke two of Nickelodeon's rules. One being that a show doesn't acknowledge an episode is the last episode, so kids keep watching and hoping for new episodes, and the other rule being a show doesn't break the fourth wall. "Bye Bye Beavers" did both. However, a recording of the actors reading the script exists online. This episode, even only as an audio, is one of the most unique deconstructions ever made.

It starts off somewhat normal, with Norbert explaining to Daggett that they're fictional characters in a cartoon, that has just been cancelled. The insanity begins when you hear the voice actors laughing as they're reading their lines, and then having a conversation. Norbert and Daggett are talking to each other about how their lives are just a show, joking about common tropes in cartoons, while each character's voice actors are talking to each other about other shows and their future plans. This doesn't just break the fourth wall, it completely deconstructs the show in a bizarre meta way. Disney Acid Sequence : Norbert and Treeflower's duet in Bummer of Love. The entire episode of Brothers, to the End? "Do It Yourself" Theme Tune : Daggett does this often. Dub Name Change : In the Dutch dubbed version, Norbert is named Benno and Daggett is named Boris. Early Installment Weirdness : Daggett looks the same in the pilot, and is still voiced by Richard Horvitz, but Norbert's design is radically different, and has a different voice actor. The credits for many of the earlier episodes had very few Credits Gags , if any. It became a standard appearance starting in Season 2.

Ending Theme : An organ theme, still upbeat but noticeably different in tone from the brassy opening theme. End of Series Awareness : Too much of this is why the final episode, Bye Bye Beavers, was never aired. Episode Title Card : Each card is accompanied by the recurring theme and an illustration. A few episodes lack the title card sequence. Everyone Has Standards : In Brothers...To The End?, Daggett and Norbert, who now have godly powers to create a new world , get in a fight. The entity (credited as The Voice) which gave them the powers seems to side with Dag: The Voice: Wha-wha-wha what's happening?! What are you two beavers doing to the world I gave you to create? Slap Happy, where beaver tail slapping (which is something beavers actually do in real life to warn others of danger ) and the discussion on not abusing it comes off more as a metaphor for masturbation , leading to this great exchange: Norbert: I am a beaver of self-control! Norbert's Dad: Ease up, Norb, I heard you slapping before you left home! You used to do it in the bathtub all the time!

Norbert: I was just washing my tail, I swear! In Strange Allure, Daggett gets a fishing lure stuck in his tail. He eventually falls in love with it and decides to name it "Angel Eyes". While Norbert is playing golf, a detective approaches him and shows him pictures of Daggett and Angel Eyes in front of a motel. On the pictures, Daggett is also seen wearing shades and holding a jacket around Angel Eyes. Norbert later calls her a "bit of a floozy" when he finds out that a lot of fish are in love with her as well. Norbert: She put the "floo" in "floozy". The name of the series itself. Forgot to mention the entire chorus of 'Beaver Fever'. Daggett substituting "Eureka!" with "Urethra!" The title episodes "Specs Appeal," "Damnesia" and "Open Wide for Zombies." They're beavers that live in a dam. The possibilities were practically endless. The incidental musical bits accompanying Barry Bear are reminiscent of Barry White 's music, which are very, very sensuous (particularly "Can't Get Enough of Your Love, Babe").

In the episode "Zooing Time": Zookeeper: What's that, Charleton? Why yes! *snickers* the beavers ARE good at eating wood! Daggett calls Norbert "weasel weenie" on the first episode. The beavers' outfits in Long in the Teeth. The episode In Search of Big Byoo-Tox has a tabloid on a table titled Morning Woo. From Strange Allure: Norb: Have you gone absolutley, freakin' mental?! From Salmon Sez Dagget: "I'm not letting a bunch of scaly butts spawnnote Smashing Property And Whomping Norb my brother to death!" From Bummer of Love Goggles Do Nothing : Norbert's helmet in Muscular Beaver 2 either falls off him before sustaining a head injury or just fails to protect his head at all. This is ultimately subverted at the end of the episode, where Norbert's helmet ends up defeating the giant splinter he and Daggett (as Muscular Beaver) have been fighting. Norbert: This... this... HELMUUUUT!!! has been completely, absolutely, positively and rightfully USELESS! Idiot Ball : Stupidity Potion #237.

I'm a Humanitarian : In the end of Season 2, Episode 19, Part 1 ï¿½ The Mighty Knothead. Insane Troll Logic : In-universe: Stinky Thing + Stinky Thing = NOT SMELLY! This becomes a case of Hilarious in Hindsight due to the recent scientific discovery of "olfactory white". Basically, if you take enough diverse odors and mix them together, even if the individual components smell bad, the combination will be too complex for your nose to recognize. The end result is a bland yet noticeable fragrance that's neither good nor bad, and can actually be used to cover up additional odors. Insult Misfire : When their sisters are spending the day, Dag and Norb start arguing about how to look after them, Dag with planning and a chart, Norb with a "let them run free" attitude. Dag eventually does this: Dag: Structure THIS, chart boy! (Blows a raspberry at Norb) Oh wait I'm chart boy. It's a Wonderful Plot : Its a Spootiful Life. It turns out everyone really would have been better off if Daggett had never been born. He decides he wants to go back anyway.

That is, assuming it wasn't all just a dream. It's Always Spring : Most episodes seem to be set in early spring, with little patches of snow strewn about. It's the Same, Now It Sucks : Parodied In-Universe with the failed follow-up single to "Beaver Fever", which is literally the exact same song with one word added: ♪ He's got that Beaver Fever / More Beaver Fever! ♪ Kissing Cousins : Stump has a crush on his cousin Vanity, who was carved into a, well, vanity. At a family reunion, they overcome the objections of her brother Butch (a butcher's table) and get together. To be more specific, Vanity is a distant cousin. Negative Continuity Never Wake Up A Sleepwalker : Played straight as Daggett was told never to wake up a sleepwalker. It makes it tough as Norb is usually playing out scenarios he's watching on late night B-films and eating loads of junk food in the process. New Job as the Plot Demands : Treeflower often had a new job or hobby every time she appeared and often a change in personality to go along with it. This happened often enough for it to be lampshaded in "Practical Jerks".

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero! : Lumberjack's Delight, where after exhausting every other option, Norb decides the only way to save the forest and get rid of the Lumberjacks is via a competition. A tree felling competition. Norb wins, but realizes that in the process, they've felled the entire forest, which the Lumberjacks gladly take with them. No Celebrities Were Harmed : Barry the bear talks an awful lot like Barry White . He sings like him too. The title character from "In Search of Big Byoo-tox" is a hairier Donald Sutherland , even quoting some of his lines about "negative waves" from Kelly's Heroes . And "Deck Poops" features an explicit parody of the Rat Pack . Let's not forget BABA in "Euro Beavers", since that should've been clear who are they are appear to be . No Dialogue Episode : Silent But Deadly, justified in that the beavers have woken up with their bedroom infested with sleeping beaver-eating wolverines. The only real line of dialogue in the episode is thought, as they don't want to risk waking them up by talking. No Fourth Wall : Bye Bye Beavers tears it to pieces.

Thus, it never aired. Norbert opens the mirrored bathroom cabinet door in Daggy Dearest, revealing a camera operator. In Practical Jerks, Daggett refers to the raccoon girl tribe as "those Amazon girl raccoon lady thingies from, uh, Mighty Knothead", referencing the episode title in which they were introduced. Nonstandard Character Design : The Beavers' cousin from Kreature Komforts, who is just a live-action beaver, and behaves as one. Noodle Incident : In the episode Slap Happy, the Beavers' father claims that the story of Slap Johnson was made up by their mother because she never forgave him for the bachelor party that was thrown. Slap merely says, "It's okay, it was worth it." Not So Different : Norb and Dag are more similar than it may seem. One-Hit Wonder : In-universe. Norbert and Daggett never do produce another hit beyond "Beaver Fever" in the episode of that name, and eventually their spotlight is taken by Barry.

Ominous Latin Chanting : Parodied in "Fakin' It": Dag is on his deathbed and you can hear one of these chanting random Latin phrases like "Habeas Corpus" and "Quid Pro Quo" and even the lyrics to "Row, Row, Row Your Boat"! Our Ghosts Are Different : In Spookyspoots, the dam is inexplicably haunted by good, friendly ghosts who cater to the brothers' every whim and let them use portals to teleport around the house. Dag and Norb are quite fond of the ghosts, until the two annoying scientists show up to exorcise the ghosts against Dag and Norb's wishes. They then team up with the ghosts to get rid of the scientists. Out-Gambitted : In The Big Round Sticky Fish Thingy, Norb tricks Dag into going to Delaware, "a place nobody knows". As Norb's getting away, he didn't expect Dag to construct a "big, wooden, treadmill, thingamabob", which is "the specialty of the proud people of DELAWARE!" Paranoia Gambit : Norbert uses this in Gonna Getcha.

of course, as soon as Norbert explains he was using this, he then proceeds to actually get Daggett back anyways. Parental Favoritism : Both of the brothers' parents apparently favor Daggett. Norbert is far from The Unfavourite , but he visibly loses his cool whenever Dag's getting pampered. Potty Emergency : Dag's part of Too Loose Latrine. Pyrrhic Victory : In the climax of Lumberjack's Delight, Norbert finally succeeds in driving away the lumberjacks from chopping all the trees in the forest. The problem? He did so by winning in a tree chopping contest... and the lumberjacks left smugly singing with the entire forest's worth of trees. Also in Sqotters. By Loophole Abuse , Norb tries to trick the otters out of their house so they can reclaim it. Eventually he and Dag decide that they have to put all of their stuff outside so the otters would leave. The beavers get their house back... but the otters leave with everything in it.

Shaggy Dog Story : "Pass It On" Shout-Out : The camera panning up dramatically as an epic score plays revealing Dagget (in his superhero alter-ego) overlooking the forest from the top of a cliff is taken from the ending of Tim Burton 's Batman . Barry the Bear's doorbell is James Brown 's famous "HEY!" from his hit-song, I Got You (I Feel Good). And Treeflower's doorbell is " In A Gadda Da Vida ". Norb also does the Captain Kirk voice. Quite a few times. Any number of B movies, especially in the episode The Day the Earth Got Really Screwed Up, which parodies the heck out of those things, yet manages to be really cool. To 2001: A Space Odessey when the beavers find the monolith while in space...and promptly use it to build their gravity dam . "Oh, what a fool I was!" which is to Alfred Hitchcock's 'Rebecca'. Norb carves a statue of Treeflower looking like Princess Leah in one episode.

The "cyclops" in "Friends, Romans, Beavers!" is one big shout-out to Ray Harryhausen , between being a Roman monster and his unusually abrupt manner of moving to mimic stop-motion animation. Norbert's hairdo in the soccer episode is highly reminiscent of Carlos Valderrama Regular shoutouts to Charlton Heston movies, especially Ben Hur and Planet of the Apes . The "damned dirty apes" quote is used at least twice. In "What's Eating You?", when Norb, Dag and Stump are trapped in a cave system that leads to the center of the Earth, Norb outright acknowledges that "it's a homage to Jules Verne " Treeflower's story in "Pass It On" features Norb looking like Astro Boy and Treeflower herself transforming into a Magical Girl character slightly resembling Lina Inverse . Shown Their Work : Every once in a while something that is in fact true about real-life beavers is thrown at you, like the already mentioned Tail-Slapping .

The third eyelids mentioned in the Staring Contest (Stare and Stare Alike) and the slave-for-a-day (You Promised) episodes on the other hand do exist: they're the "nictating membrane" and the primary function in beavers is to protect the eyes while they are diving underwater. The fact that a beaver's front teeth do indeed continue growing throughout their lives is true. And, yes, beavers do need to constantly chew on things to wear the teeth down, or else their teeth really will grow through their skulls and kill them. The episode "Sqotters" involves river otters claiming the beavers' unoccupied home, which is what sometimes happens in real life. Beaver dams can prevent salmon from travelling upstream during spawning season, the main premise of "Salmon Sez". In "Moby Dopes" Camu would occasionally beach himself on land to catch prey just like real orcas. Sibling Rivalry : Norb and Dag vacillate between this and "BIIIIG HUG!!"; their sisters, in contrast, get along very well. Sibling Yin-Yang : No matter what the subject, the two brothers usually wind up on opposite ends of it.

Space Is an Ocean : In Mission to the Big Hot Thingy, the Beavers watch a video comparing their imminent doom of being pulled into the sun by gravity with a boat being pulled by a swift river current. They take this analogy literally and do what beavers would do in the river scenario. They build a giant dam to cut off the Sun's gravity! Those things are supposed to be his ears? Stylistic Suck : The beavers love terrible B-movies. They even make one. And yet Animation Bump . The movies in question are drawn much more realistically than the rest of the show. Sudden Anatomy : The beavers only have webbed toes when swimming. Superhero Episode : Anytime Muscular Beaver shows up. Dag deludes himself into thinking he's a superhero, with awesome tools like the Cloak of Limited Invisibility ("it's just nearly visible!") Also, the dramatic score playing as the camera pans up to reveal Dag standing atop a cliff overlooking the forest seems oddly familiar ... Everyone gets in on it in one episode. And Bing shows up a few times as "Most Potent Bug". But of course! Smashing Property And Whomping Norb !

Taxonomic Term Confusion : One episode incorrectly refers to rabbits as rodents, when in reality they are of the lagomorph, not rodent, order. Of course, in that same episode ("Long in the Teeth"), it shows all sorts of animals growing giant teeth, including, IIRC, a frog and a deer. So perhaps their grasp of taxonomy should be taken with a good heapin' pinch of salt. Tempting Fate : The episode "Beaver Master". A warrior keeps re-appearing everytime Dag and Norb utter, "That's the last we'll see of him!" Norb eventually lampshades this . They both start using it to their advantage... at least for a plan they thought would work. Even after learning this, they still willingly tempt the phrase when they think they've actually won (twice) only to be proven wrong. Universe Bible : Right here. The Unreveal / What Happened to the Mouse? : The manservant in "The Day the World Got Really Screwed Up". At the end of the episode, Norbert says there was no manservant, and asks Daggett to explain.

Daggett begins playing a video...and then the show instantly cuts to the end of his explanation. All the viewers sees is the other characters reacting to the explanation, and one person commenting "And to think they did it without using their...tongues." Unstoppable Rage : Dag had a pretty nasty temper, and Norb wasn't too far behind, either. Unusual Euphemism : "Spoot", usually uttered by Daggett. Unusually Uninteresting Sight : Daggett seems to love it when the parents visit and doesn't at all mind the fact that his mom is a secret agent or that his dad likes to hang out around him and Norbert a little too much, while Norbert tends to be a little paranoid or skeptical. Could be part of the reason Dag's the favorite. Verbal Tic : Norbert's odd habit of adding extra syllables, especially with diphthongs and silent Es: "The beäver gargle of achë!" Daggett likes to "Eeeh" and say "dot dot dot" out loud. Sometimes they'll use each other's tics, too. Daggett also has a tendency to perform an action while saying out loud what the action is.

For example, when he "flies" as Muscular Beaver, he yells "Whoosh!", and at least once, he storms out of a room while saying the words "Muttering angrily..." in an angry , muttering tone. Norbert especially loves to deliberately mispronounce words, which gets Daggett doing it, too . Some of the words Norbert mispronounces throughout the series: "entertainment" (enter-tan-e-ment), "speak" (spee-ak), "beaver" (beev-wawr with French inflection, or bee-ah-ver), and "buttocks" (byoo-tocks). This is eventually lampshaded when Norb pronouces movie as "MYOO-vee" throughout the episode Dag for Night. Then when he finally pronounces it right, Dag calls him out on it. Norbert: Some of your injuries may never heal properly, but we will always have made our MYOO-vee, the greatest MYOO-vee ever made! Say it with me, Daggett. The greatest MYOO-vee ever made! Daggett: The heck's a moo-vay? Norbert: You'll see.

Scene changes to show the brothers watching TV on their couch. Norbert yawns. Norbert: This is boring. Let's watch our movie again! Daggett: I thought it was a MYOO-vay. Norbert: I never said that... Visible Boom Mic : In the episode "The Loogie Hawk" Also in the Food of the Clods episode, which frequently shows Norb watching 1950s B-movies, will invoke this by showing a boom mic visible in shots. Vitriolic Best Buds : The titular duo. Even though they're brothers, their relationship oozes this trope. The show's opening even highlights it.
